Happy National Best Friends Day to this incredible crew: Ben, Banjo, Ellie, and Rollie. ❤️
These four have shown us what true friendship looks like, playing together, napping together, exploring together, and always being there for one another. They have created countless memories and filled our days with laughter, love, and wagging tails.
Today is especially bittersweet because tonight Ben heads to his forever home. While our hearts are overflowing with happiness for him, there’s no denying that a piece of TailWaggers will be missing. Ben has been part of our pack for many months, and his sweet spirit, goofy personality, and loving heart have left paw prints on all of us that will never fade.
But Ben’s journey would not have been possible without the amazing Nora Thorpe and Maggie Bretl Thorpe. Through every step of the way, they have loved, cared for, and supported Ben as if he were their very own. Their patience, dedication, and endless love gave him the chance to find the forever family he deserves. Nora, you are truly one of a kind, and there is no doubt that you will always be Ben’s forever best friend. ❤️
We also want to give a heartfelt thank you to Katie Marie for all of her hard work behind the scenes to help make this day possible. Finding the perfect forever home takes time, dedication, and so much love, and Katie has poured her heart into helping Ben find exactly where he belongs. We are so grateful for everything she has done to help write this next chapter of Ben’s story.
As we celebrate friendship today, we’re celebrating the bond these pups share, the love Nora has poured into Ben, the dedication Katie has shown in helping him find his forever family, and the beautiful new chapter waiting for him tonight.
We love you, Ben. We will miss you more than words can say, but we couldn’t be happier for you. Once a part of the TailWaggers family, always a part of the TailWaggers family. 🐾❤️
